Update a image path

You'd need to handle setting the image path in update() just like you are in the create method. You're not just dumping $request to create. You're manipulating the data before you send it to create. You need to do the same in edit, or at least for the image_path variable.

// make an array of all request data except for the image path
$data = $request->except('image_path');

// now set the image path just like in create.
$data['image_path'] = request()->file('image')->store('images', 'public');

// update
$camping->update($data);

I'd actually redo your create() method too. Notice how much simpler it is to do

$data = $request->except('image_path');
$data['image_path'] = request()->file('image')->store('images', 'public');
$camping = Camping::create($data);

vs your

$camping = Camping::create([
                     'title'         =>      request('title'),     
                     'en_title'      =>      request('en_title'),  
                     'state'         =>      request('states'),     
                     'address'       =>      request('address'),   
                     'body'          =>      request('body'),      
                     'en_body'       =>      request('en_body'),   
                     'phone'         =>      request('phone'),     
                     'email'         =>      request('email'),     
                     'website'       =>      request('website'),   
                     'opening'       =>      request('opening'),
                     'image_path'    =>      request()->file('image')->store('images', 'public')
 ]);

There is more info about what you can do with the request object in the user guide if you care to learn more.

@cronix - Now I'm getting this error on the update function (The store function worked).

Call to a member function store() on null

This is how the function looks like:

public function update(Request $request, $id)
       {
              // $data = Camping::where('id', '=', $id)->first();
              $data = $request->except('image_path');
              $data['image_path'] = request()->file('image')->store('images', 'public');
              $camping->update($data);

              return redirect('/stjornbord/tjaldsvæði/breyta');
       }

And the input:

<span>Veldu mynd</span>
<input type="file" name="image" class="hidden">

The way you wrote the original code, it expects an image. I take it you didn't select one? If the image isn't required, then you need to check to see if the image exists in the request before trying to save it. Validation rules would also prevent the error and let the user know.

If no image is selected, this becomes null

request()->file('image')

so it ends up null->store('images', 'public') which obviously is a problem.

thank you

@cronix - I am passing in an image but it always returns with Call to a member function store() on null. I tried dd and it showed like an image was in the request.
